I used a desktop world clock programm (dunno remember the name) for a long time.
So I always knowed whats BST CEST CET PST etc. etc. compared to my time.
Today I usually only use http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/

Quote from hyntty :

And Audi drivers didn´t do anything wrong? Rockenfeller (and especially him) and Premat didn´t hold up faster Mercedes´behind them?

Good I'm not a fan of Audi or Mercedes so I watched the race without much emotions but:

1.
To "hold up" someone up (or defend your position against faster cars as long as you can) is normal and legitimate part of racing.
So it's not like they did something wrong

2.
To brake waaaaay to late like Häkkinen and take out the leader is a stupid mistake (2 times world champion or not) It was just over optimistic and looked like a typical LFS T1 noob crash :nod

3.
When you lost the corner and don't lift then you end up on the green like la Rosa but then to just give full speed and brake like 5 meter before reentering the track and do a revenge hit to take out the Championship leader!! Ekström is more then unsportsmenlike imo.

And then say afterwards it was Ekströms fault on german TV is just unbelievable.

4.
With all those touches, crashes and passings it was much more entertaining then (to me completly boring) 1 WTCC Race at Brands.


5.
To proof my words :
- Häkkinnen have to pay 20000 Euros fine
- La Rosa 10000 Euros fine
- Both are afterwards excluded from the race (but they didn't finished)
- Both have to go back 10 places in the grid in the next race

Judging by the fact that your reply isnt here any more, im guessing your no longer unsure about my guess?

I haven't read your earlier post properly and posted something quickly.
Then I read it again and understood what you meant and thought it makes sense
Then I deleted my post (because it was useless)

Quote from Dajmin :

@BBO@BSR:
None of the devs posted in that thread you linked to,.

True but that's not the point.
If you would have read the mail from Nikimere (to which the link goes) then you would see he was in contact with the Dev and he offered the track for free (+free licenses) and the Devs said/pm'd/mailed him they don't want it but they might consider it in the future.

So to me it looks like that at this point of the development they have other things to do then adding new cars or tracks.
And if no one is asking them directly it's useless to discuss or post all these "I want this track", "can we have that track", or get in contact with some track or car brand owner

Did anyone of you e-mail writers ever asked the devs if they want something like that? Else it's just a waste of time.

We could have had Mondello Park but they don't wanted it ( but say they might consider the offer in the future)
http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=422855#post422855

So imo they don't want something like that right now or only under very very special circumstances like BF1/Intel/Aston deal.

Quote from KeiichiRX7 :

Right then, server's down.

Phil told me to use the same server as last time, and it's not there, so WTF.

Anyone got a server capable of hosting this shindig?

check your filters (private & empty)
the server is still there

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

Maybe you ought to give it a bit of time to see how the entries play out? Could be that people haven't done their GT2 entries yet because they aren't sure about the restrictions yet.

Exactly. We also entered with a GT2 car and are not in the list atm.

Quote from nikka :

Just a quick question to you, Victor... would it be possible for you to revert the last activity information to before the "Phlos is my god" incident?

http://forum.lfs-noobs.org/showols.php

I hate to have this manifest of a script kiddies work on our site..

For us it worked like this:
Driver had to go online, entered a server, then the info was back to normal.

np

It's not a bug it's a feature

Quote from tinyk :

he only wants to clear all stats including fuel usage and miles driven so he can get an accurate count of his driving. It's not to get rid of a bad rep the nick has because there isn't one.

Yes I know and didn't said anything about it (that was obsolum).

But Scawen said it in another thread:

Quote :

Selling used licenses is not banned in our agreement, for some reason, but personally I disapprove anyway. One license should be for one person. No-one should buy a used license, because a license has history, may be banned from hosts, etc. The buyer would have no proof of purchase, so could not retrieve the license if anything went wrong. This is also extra workload for technical support, even though we have only been paid once, for multiple users.

So deleting the complete stats (only vic can do that) would be extra work for them without being paid again.
That's all I meant.

An imo if we start editing some user stats then it would also falsify the whole stats (like complete driven laps and car choice by all users etc. etc.)

Quote from ORION :

ask vic
but dunno if its possible

I don't think Victor will do it because,
I speculate on this, the reason for him trying to delete everything is: He got an "old" S2 license yesterday from somebody.

I drive really slow in the ultra fast lane

10/10 for the music choice

No you can't do this

Niki yes that's it. Great piece of art :ices_rofl

They showed Ditzy Chick here in the news some hours ago and they also showed some others.

The funniest was (to bad I can't find a vid):

A Miss Somewhere was asked what she eats.
She: I'm vegetarian
Reporter: So you don't eat meat
She: No, I can't eat cows or animals when I looked into his eyes
Reporter: What do you eat instead
She: Chicken
Reporter: But chicken is ehhm
She: Yes chicken is a bird and a cow is an animal
Reporter: hmm ehhh ...

On Jun 16 2007 you told others in another forum under the "General Hacking" thread you started "...I my-self see that im a black hat..."

So forget it no one with a clear mind will trust you here again.

Translation: I just wish people had done as I had asked (see Tristans post above perhaps...?)

Quote from mikey_G :

Discovering a buffer overflow and writing shellcode for it isnt criminal nor illegal,...

I didn't said that.

I meant if one of the goals of this exploit is to show others an easy way how to modify replays to take over others computers like muhaa said. Then it's an instruction how to do illegal things and this is criminal in a lot of countries.

Releasing an instruction manual how to make a simple suitcase bomb is the same thing. Some would say it's just a poc and if someone then using it to bomb away some others, the author of that, of course, has nothing to do with it.
That's crazy imo.

Quote from muhaa :

Lol Bob.


Omfg what are you talking about a buffer over flow is not a serious bug..Wake up!!
the point is people do open replay files on this forum i have on many ocasions.By simply opening a modified replay file can take over your computer but don't worry its not serious.

Read the posts you are answering boohaa

I said a buffer overflow alone doesn't do anything to anyone
till someone used his criminal energy and wrote code to use or let others use this part of the software illegally.

So now we had a problem were no problem was just because the software was used in an illegal way.

You said it: if the replays weren't ILLEGALLY modified (which is criminal) then there wouldn't be a problem at all.

For me the point with the LFS exploits is (I make it very short):

It's a sim game and exploit searching people using parts (i.e the replays) of the software in a way it shouldn't be used.
It's a replay of a race nothing more. Not a code example to play with.
No one told them to do it and it's not made by the devs for things like this.

But they dig in the code of the replays till they find something that allows i.e. a buffer overflow.
Which doesn't do anything to anyone nor is it a real security hole except
till the day these people write code to use the software part in a way the software wasn't made for.
An imo illegal way.

Then the LFS community/the devs have a problem were no problem was before,
and it wouldn't be there if they would use the software like it should be used:
For playing and having fun while racing.

So these "security holes" are only there because people searching for gaps to use the software
or parts of it in an illegal way or to show others how they can perform illegal things on other people computers with it etc.

In the end it's not making the software more secure but it steals my time, your time, and especially the devs time and delays the release of LFS final.

Thx a lot you (insert your bad words here)
